The family tie to Araumi is told apart from military alliances.","facts":[["Tipo","Clan"],["Procedencia","Boruto · Anime"],["Genealogía","Identified ties only"]],"lvl":2,"sections":[{"h":"Pirates of the Land of Water","t":"The Funato clan is exclusive to the Boruto anime. It is a clan of pirates from the Land of Water, among the country's oldest, known for its raids, kidnappings and strength on the open sea. Its core is made up of those who share blood with the leader, Araumi, but most of its forces are followers who join by affinity or by force, and they live as a society apart, fiercely loyal to each other. Members outside the bloodline wear a violet two-line tattoo on their foreheads. The arc begins when an airship crashes and the pirates launch their attack.","lvl":2,"ep":"boruto-233","pos":758},{"h":"The sea dragon's power","t":"Most of the Funato master Water Release. Those who are Funato by blood share a look, reddish-blond hair, tanned skin and silvery-blue eyes, and inherit gill markings on their necks and the so-called sea dragon's power, which gives them some control over the water around them, with an intensity that varies by person. Araumi takes it to the extreme: on breaking out of prison he drains the water from the guards' bodies. The clan is pragmatic to the point of cruelty and trains its boys for war from childhood.","lvl":2,"ep":"boruto-234","pos":758},{"h":"Araumi and his family","t":"Years earlier, Araumi had been defeated by Chōjūrō, the Sixth Mizukage, and imprisoned, which scattered the clan. His son Isari frees him by storming the prison while his other son, Tenma, seizes islands with a mobile fortress armed with a great ninja-tool cannon. Tenma is adopted and leads a unit feared for killing weak recruits. There are also Seiren and her younger brother Ikada, who lives apart from the clan and befriends Boruto. Real kinship should be told apart from alliances: many who fight under the Funato name are not Araumi's family.","lvl":2,"ep":"boruto-241","pos":758},{"h":"The war against the Mist","t":"The war between the Funato and Kirigakure takes many lives. Funamushi, a clan commander, kills Kagura Karatachi; Tenma, seeking Araumi's approval, attacks Chōjūrō and the Mizukage kills him; Seiren dies in Ikada's arms. Isari tries to negotiate peace with Chōjūrō in secret, but Araumi discovers the betrayal and kills him from afar, presenting Ikada as the one who will avenge the clan. The arc shows how the clan turns grief into fuel to keep the war going.","lvl":2,"ep":"boruto-251","pos":758},{"h":"The surrender","t":"On the flagship, Ikada demands Chōjūrō's head to end the war, and Boruto offers his own life instead. The Funato beat him and he throws himself into the sea so no one will have to carry his death; Ikada saves him and orders the retreat, while Kawaki stops Araumi before he fires the cannon. After the surrender, the clan loses influence and remains under the Mist's watch: Araumi goes back to prison and Ikada stays under permanent surveillance.","lvl":2,"ep":"boruto-255","pos":758}],"characters":["araumi","isari","tenma","seiren","ikada"],"related":["chakra","kirigakure"],"reference":"Official series and chapter guides as reading context.
